Your November 2026 Horoscope: We're Turning a Corner This Month—and Your Travels Are Too

Your November 2026 horoscope is here—and it comes bearing some good news. After last month’s emotional whiplash, it will feel like a relief to experience the course-correction that November’s astrology has in store for us. Mercury and Venus both station direct on November 13, bringing us greater clarity by mid-month.

Venus began her retrograde deep dive in early October, provoked by a sense that something was deeply wrong. Mercury followed suit later that month, aiding Venus’ soul-searching with its thorough detective work. Many of us may have revisited our prior trauma as new revelations dawned on us, or maybe as newfound revulsion made itself felt at the way we’d been mistreated. Still more of us probably spent the last few weeks changing our minds and hearts about someone or something important to us. It’s not sustainable to love something that doesn’t love you back, and perhaps there’s a deep lack of equity in these dynamics that was crying out for repair. Now, the period of reappraisal is concluding, but this is not a return to “normalcy” so much as it is a return to “a way of relating that we can live with because it’s true.”

Venus also ends its retrograde in much better shape than it started. All month, Venus will be in its home sign of Libra forming a supportive sextile to Jupiter. Something is being restored to us this month, and something is being brought back into balance. Whether it’s harmony, equity, justice, or just an ability to get along with (or without) someone you had deep misgivings about in October, we will probably leave this month feeling better about where we’ve left things. Possibly, we will also be celebrating positive wins and turning points in our lives. This is one of the better moments of 2026 for the lovers, romantics, and adventurers, especially once the Sun enters Sagittarius on November 22 and makes us restless to explore new horizons again. If you’ve got travel planned this month, you will find plenty of beauty to appreciate, even if you’re not in the most stereotypically postcard-perfect location.

Astrologer's note: Below we refer to your signs as “rising” signs, also known as your ascendant sign. Horoscopes are more accurate when read this way—using your birth time and location, you can quickly find your rising sign online (it takes less than 30 seconds).

Aries Rising

Things are looking up for one or more of your significant relationships. It was hard-won progress alright, but Venus is stationing direct in your 7th house of partnerships this month, and she’s in strong shape after the trials of October. Hopefully, all that soul-searching and probing and re-opening of the can of worms from years ago did what it needed to do, and by the looks of it, couple’s therapy was probably a sound investment. It’s only by addressing things at the root that you can come back together again in a way that feels real. And if dredging up all that sordid material made it impossible to go home again, there is also a version of this story where you’re now coming back into alignment with yourself after grieving the end of a friendship or relationship. If anything, you’re more clear than ever before on what you want for your relationships going forward, and you’ve prepped the soil to cultivate better unions in the future. You are the consummate “girl who’s gonna be okay.”

In general, this would be a cute time to take a honeymoon with your boo or bestie — really anyone important in your life who has been a meaningful part of your journey as of late. November’s astrology is stimulating the parts of your chart that are most associated with romance, fun, and adventure, and even if you’re fearless when it comes to traveling solo, you’ll probably want someone by your side to share this one with. After the Sun enters Sagittarius on November 22, you’ll be even more in the zone to go places and glimpse new horizons, so enjoy the mood while it lasts.

This month could also represent an important turning point in one of your financial endeavors—the kind that typically looks like you signing on the dotted line. If last month’s storms threw a contract, agreement, or joint venture into question, things should hopefully clear up enough by mid-month for you to feel confident about moving forward with the updated version. Mercury will station direct in your 8th house of shared resources on the same day as Venus (November 13), and there’s a new moon in Scorpio on November 9 that signals some sort of new beginning in this area. However, this might require you to “kill your darlings” to get there. You might be really attached to the version of your masterpiece you originally envisioned in your mind’s eye, but November’s Mars-Jupiter-South Node conjunction has other plans in mind for you. Don’t let your pride get in the way of what could be a much better deal for everyone involved. This is an inevitable part of any creative process.

Taurus Rising

The vibes were pretty off there for a second, but the good news is that you’re coming back to yourself now (and potentially even setting yourself up to feel better than ever). With your ruling planet, Venus, stationing direct with shining colors on November 13, it seems as though the winter of your discontent is now transforming into a proverbial spring of renewal. The most likely culprit? Something is realigning in your life to restore your health and wellbeing. Whether you’re implementing a healing protocol, lifestyle adjustment, or even getting more help around the house or at your job, it will feel as though a burden is being lifted. Some of you might even be adopting a new pet who will get you out the door every day on walks or otherwise rebalance the harmony in your home for the better. Celebrate the wins wherever you can, because you certainly went through enough to deserve them.

Though you will probably enjoy a greater sense of wellbeing in November (even to the point of whistling while you work), this is bigger than just what’s happening right now. Whatever ordeal you went through these last few weeks is ultimately setting you up for a new eight-year chapter in your relationships, work, and relationship to your body. New ways of relating will emerge from this moment, as well as different types of projects you will feel called to pursue. Perhaps there will be new collaborators and colleagues entering your life over the next few months—a definitive turning of the page in your work. Pay attention to the clarity that’s emerging right now in your conversations with other people (especially on November 4, 9, and 13), because some of the things that muddied the waters recently are getting sorted by mid-month—if not in a totally pleasant way, then at least in a clear way. You want to feel known and seen by the people you’re devoted to, and that has to begin with a clear foundation of honesty and trust.

This month’s astrology lends itself more to a healing retreat than a party weekend or a heavy-duty sightseeing adventure, but if life hasn’t handed you the luxury of a quiet vacation, you will still be inclined to prioritize the things that make you feel best—a short gym workout at the hotel before you start your day, not skipping your morning meditation just because you’re not at home, making sure you eat a substantial breakfast with protein before you’re off to the races, you get the vibe. If you’re gonna turn a new leaf, make sure you’re not doing so from the place of self-neglect you just worked so hard to come back from.

Gemini Rising

It feels like you’re approaching some sort of cliffhanger or climax in your story, and this is not going to be one of the more predictable outcomes you’ve experienced. As your ruling planet, Mercury, stations direct on November 13 to deliver its investigative report from the last couple of weeks, the full moon in Gemini on November 24 brings you a bit of a twist or surprise ending to the bigger journey you’ve been on this year. This full moon is conjunct Uranus, so its effect on your life will likely be destabilizing and disruptive, even if not entirely unexpected. Then again, maybe the surprise is that you’ve actually got more options than you thought. A change will be made, that’s for sure. But maybe you have some real agency to work with.

With Mercury concluding its retrograde in your 6th house, it’s very possible that you’ll be getting some news related to your health or a diagnosis you sought a second opinion about. There could also be turnover happening at work (like layoffs and reorganizations) that will affect your day-to-day responsibilities going forward. Not to be overlooked is Venus going direct on the same day as Mercury, which very much looks like reaching internal clarity related to matters of the heart. Yes, this could be about your love life, and it could be about your kids (or your decision to have them), but it’s also about the things you love broadly—the pursuits and activities that you would rather organize your life around. You may not see the full trajectory yet, but this could be a real turning point for your creative direction if there’s a labor of love that wants to come through you. But first, there’s the practical matter of finding the hours in a day to bring it forth.

If you feel your heart opening to life again in a real way, that’s par for the course. While the more pivotal changes are rearranging your life, take November as an opportunity to embrace what brings you joy. Make your social life a bigger priority. Spend quality time with your kids. Start going on dates again. Take a trip to one of your favorite places, or better yet, convince yourself that you actually do need to go on an artist’s retreat, and that it can’t wait until next year. You’re in a more fertile, creative headspace than usual, and it would be a shame to let that go to waste.

Cancer Rising

Home is where the heart is, and maybe that’s never felt more true to you than it does right now. As Venus and Mercury both conclude their retrograde journeys on November 13, you will look around you and perhaps realize that everything you need is right here, exactly where you are. And if you’re not there yet, then you’re probably well on your way, because these last few weeks have ultimately been a rehoming process for you. Barring a literal move, there have been old emotions coming up to be dealt with connected to places where you once lived, as well as more recent issues that have likely changed the dynamics within your family. You’ve had children to consider, as well as questions of how to continue your legacy in general. You’ve been deep in your feels about a lover too, as though you didn’t already have enough on your mind, and maybe opening your heart to love again is part of the bigger life change you’re considering. Where is your root system anchored, and who does it connect you to? This is ultimately the question that steers you forward.

For some of you, these shifts could be quite literal. Venus spends all of November forming a sextile to Jupiter, which offers you some monetary assistance to put toward your home (or at least opens a way financially to make things happen). Whether you’re buying a house, starting a new lease, or investing in some home improvement, there’s likely enough to keep you occupied at home right now that travel is not top of mind (or in your budget). If you do go anywhere this month, it will likely be a visit to see family or scout a place you're considering a move to. Themes of “homecoming” are loud for you right now, and besides, many of us need to plan our visits home around the difficult astrology. November is probably one of the better times for you to spend among the people you’ve known the longest.

Things are also moving forward for you when it comes to your creative projects and hobbies (and look, if you needed a green light to get back on the dating apps, it’s probably safe to come out from hiding too). The new moon in Scorpio on November 9, followed by Mercury’s direct station in the same sign on November 13, signals new beginnings and forward motion related to the things that bring you a sense of personal fulfillment. If you’ve recently returned to an old favorite pastime, resurrected an old artistic medium that’s been lying dormant, or started patronizing your favorite live music establishments again, that’s a sign to keep going. Follow that thread to its logical conclusion, which is back to the pulse of what makes you feel most alive.

Leo Rising

It feels like nothing can stand in your way right now—nothing, that is, but your own unchecked pride. Mid-month, an interesting and rare triple conjunction of Mars, Jupiter, and the South Node constellates in Leo, pumping you up with confidence and motivation to go all the way for the gold. And you might succeed in winning! For now, at least. This is the sort of signature that could hand you a false or empty victory, or perhaps steal your thunder in some way despite whatever you’ve achieved. It could be that you win the battle but not the larger war, or get something you thought you wanted only to find that the spoils don’t taste as sweet as you imagined. This is probably not the time to get carried away with whatever adrenaline high you’re on, or to let yourself get prematurely cocky. Humility and grace (whether it’s in victory or defeat) will be your best allies this month.

This conjunction goes exact on November 15 and 16, though it’ll be in effect all month. Then, between the 17th and the 19th, your ruling planet, the Sun, will form a square to this configuration. It will probably feel as though you’re turning a corner past the point of no return, redeeming yourself as hometown hero only to learn very quickly that you can’t go home again. With Venus and Mercury also stationing direct mid-month, certain chapters are reaching a natural end for you right now when it comes to home, family, and the familiar faces that have surrounded you for so long. Yes, this is probably about where you live physically, but more than that even, it’s about friendships and community. A large amount of our friendships are situational, meaning they’re formed and maintained so long as we’re in the same environment. Also, it’s normal for something like half of your social circle to experience turnover every seven years due to changes in people’s life circumstances. You’re in one of those apex turnover moments right now, and that’s a bittersweet thing to accept. Hopefully Venus’ presence in Libra this month paves the way for some cute hangouts, reunions, and weekend trips.

Things improve for you considerably at the end of the month once the Sun enters Sagittarius on the 22nd and Mars leaves Leo on the 25th. Think: less drama, more levity and fun, and not feeling so much immediate pressure to rise to the occasion and perform. Maybe you can enjoy some nights out again now that you’re no longer training for the Olympics? Late November through early December would be a decent time for you to take a vacation or staycation, or just to generally get back to living life to the fullest. Your joy can’t be deferred indefinitely. Right now, you’ve got permission to let it take center stage.

Virgo Rising

Guess what! You can probably stop obsessing over whatever you’ve been working on and trust that it’s ready to see the light of day. Mercury and Venus both station direct on November 13, bringing a period of deep revision to a close and priming you for a new chapter in your finances or in the marketplace. Then, the full moon in Gemini on November 24 shines a light on your career and accomplishments, signaling a milestone that you’ve been building up to all year. For you, this is a month that feels like reaching a finish line, though perhaps one that comes with a surprise twist or ending. Either this won’t go entirely as planned, or you’re about to surprise the world by rebranding yourself in an unexpected way. It’s kinda chic to subvert people’s expectations and refuse to be easily siloed or categorized.

Assuming you’re not hard-launching a new offer, redesign, or new position entirely, there are still subtle ways that you’re shifting into a new gear right now. So much of this boils down to how you sell what you’ve got to offer, which is ultimately a reflection of how you see yourself. It’s also about what you choose to prioritize and assign value to. You might say that you don’t care about keeping up appearances, but your credit card statement suggests otherwise. At the very least, you’ll have more actionable data at your fingertips to help you see where you’re misaligned.

You also stand to have some interesting experiences on the road in November. As your ruling planet, Mercury, stations direct in your 3rd house, feelings of deja vu abound, or maybe just coming full circle after getting sidetracked on the scenic route. This is the sort of setup that could send you on a literal road trip to see someone from your past, or to return to a place you didn’t think you’d visit more than once. November 4 is one of the more significant and revealing days for you this month. What’s lost becomes found, what was misunderstood becomes clear, and what needed to go wrong to get you on this path to begin with starts to make a little more sense. This would be the day to have a clarity talk, to have one last stab at editing a draft that hasn’t been coming together, or to go on a sightseeing adventure you know will blow your mind.

Whatever you do, don’t bite off more than you can chew just because your productivity is flowing again. Mars will enter Virgo on November 25, and it’s getting ready to go retrograde in January. This is your early heads up to avoid taking on extra last-minute work at the end of the year. The rest of the world is slowly entering “circle back after the holidays” mode, and you should too.

Libra Rising

You’re in full phoenix mode this month, and your glow-up will probably be studied by future generations. Okay, maybe if we’re keeping our expectations realistic, you might splurge on one new skincare product this month that will have a ripple effect on your gorgeousness for years to come. When Venus stations direct in Libra on November 13, you won’t immediately see the complete impact of the inner alchemy you’ve undergone over the last few weeks, but you will feel a shift for the better, and you might even reach some sort of significant personal milestone.

The point is that you’re entering a new eight-year era of your life and more formally leaving behind the one that started at the end of 2018. You can safely start to discard the identity you’ve been wearing that belongs to a bygone version of yourself, and you’re encouraged to adopt a new look or style to assist your becoming. Yes, it will be “safe” to pursue the haircut, makeover, or beauty treatment you’ve been mulling over after mid-November, so this would be the time to travel somewhere for glam purposes. And travel you very well may, because the November 24 full moon in Gemini might find you in the midst of a peak jetsetting experience somewhere you’ve been wanting to go for a while, or perhaps wrapping up an educational or spiritual journey of some sort. You might even end up there unexpectedly, so if you’re reading this at the beginning of November and thinking you don’t have anything planned, make room for a spontaneous plot twist.

Whatever you’re doing, it will be with the abundant support and applause of your friends, community, and wider audience. Venus spends all month in a supportive sextile with Jupiter, which multiplies your blessings through the sheer force of your support network. Don’t be shy about inviting your entire email list to your launch party or opening night, because your victory will feel that much sweeter with other people there to celebrate you. This might be the month to announce something publicly on your socials, and to ask your community to signal boost you.

Last but not least, pay attention to what’s shifting in your finances this month. There are likely delayed answers and payments making their way to you now, as well as a deeper sense that you’re accessing new levels in your earning potential. This new era of yours will likely involve changes to your income, style, personal branding, and new ways of investing in yourself more generally. It’s a good time to get your ducks in a row, scan your accounting for errors and redundancies, and maybe even come up with a new budget.

Scorpio Rising

You’re coming to terms with where you’re at, but that also implies that it’s inherently not where you hoped you’d be by now. Even your recent victories could feel hollow for whatever reason, like you’ve won the trophy you were competing for but it didn’t actually feel as good as you imagined it would. Are you being overly hard on yourself? Probably! But there’s also something to gain from your current sense of dis-ease—namely, spiritual knowledge of who you’re becoming, because you’re no longer easily impressed by the things a previous version of yourself thought would signal that you’ve “made it.”

On one hand, we’re finishing up a Venus Retrograde this month that sent you to hell in October, or maybe at best, had you not feeling so hot. Mercury also stations direct in Scorpio on the same day as Venus (November 13). Your soul-searching is concluding mid-month, backed up by plenty of receipts and evidence of what really transpired. Whether you’re navigating heartbreak on account of someone else or merely self-loathing on account of yourself, you have the spiritual momentum at your disposal to change what you don’t like about yourself and bury your bitterness so that you’re no longer poisoning yourself with the resentment that should be someone else’s cross to bear. You have the conditions at your fingertips to rewrite the narrative you have about yourself. You are moving into a definitive new personal era, and it will be fertilized, but not defined by, your own past disappointments.

Some juicy insight arrives on November 4, when Mercury conjoins the Sun in Scorpio. The new moon in Scorpio on November 9 whispers directions to you about the new path you’re embarking on. But the most potent threshold you’ll be crossing will be roughly between November 13 and 17, which is really the moment where you decide to cut your losses and move on. This is powerful stuff, and it will probably feel equal parts bad and freeing. What would feel like a relief to let go off at this point in your story?

You will probably be too preoccupied with heavy-hitting life things this month to fully escape on vacation, even if you’re fortunate enough to get one. That said, this is definitely a setup for one of those life-altering trips where you “really find yourself,” or at least find the internal clarity and courage to make a change you’ve been putting off. Let the road remind you of who you really are.

Sagittarius Rising

This month, you get to gradually free yourself from a jail of uncertainty. Yes, it was warranted to wait for all the facts to come in, and yes, you needed to go deep into your own subjective knowing, which meant quieting the voices from the peanut gallery for a while. To be totally fair, you probably still need more downtime, and you’re invited to remain in seclusion mode until the Sun enters Sagittarius on November 22, which is when you might feel your actual life force returning to you. Until then, don’t feel bad if you prefer to hang back, stay in, and go on a solo journey without your usual companions. You will return to your social engagements in due time, and with much more internal clarity around those connections to boot.

On November 13, Mercury and Venus both station direct in tandem, giving you the clarity and closure to make up your mind about some friendships and acquaintances you were feeling unsure about. You may have very well decided to step away from a group or social scene over these last few weeks, and perhaps that really threw a wrench in a team project or collective effort you’ve been a part of. Harmony and consensus is possible again in November, but that could look different depending on whether you’ve decided to stay or go. The bigger picture is that you’re now in a better position to recognize who your real friends and allies are, which will probably initiate you into a new era of belonging that will affect your social life for years going forward. Knowing who your people are is one thing—finding a club that would have someone like you as a member is another. The rooms you enter between now and March could significantly alter your life trajectory.

It’s no accident that this finds you at a moment when you’re letting go of what you thought you knew about the world. Your ruling planet, Jupiter, will be forming a triple conjunction with Mars and the South Node in your 9th house all month (though this aspect is most exact between November 12 and 16). The last thing you want to do at a time like this is be overly dogmatic or arrogant. You can fight the good fight from a mantle of humility, because stepping into this next phase of your life will probably require you to admit that you were wrong about certain things. You stand to have some interesting learning experiences this month, and those could very well find you on the road. You might find yourself immersed in another culture’s religion, politics, or creation myths, even if all you had in mind was relaxing on the beach with a beer in your hand. If you get the opportunity to go somewhere unfamiliar to you, be less of an evangelist and more of a disciple. The world opens up to you when you stop needing to be so sure about it.

Capricorn Rising

It looks like you’re finally getting your flowers this month, however long overdue they may be. There are likely things that are popping off for you careerwise in November, as well as favorable recognition directed your way more broadly for all the good you do for the world around you. Venus and Mercury both station direct in tandem on November 13, and in the most public-facing parts of your chart to boot. This is partially about how the rest of the world views you and your considerable impact, yes. But this could also feel like a concrete turning point for you that reorients you to accept the next stage of your life’s mission. Venus retrogrades in the same part of the sky every 8 years, so you could handily think of this as an initiation into your next major era. Perhaps this one will have more investor money behind it? Venus remains in a supportive sextile to Jupiter all month, which lends you tangible and immaterial support to make your dreams feasible.

With the full moon in Gemini following close behind Mercury’s direct station on November 24, you might also be wrapping up a project or team effort that’s preoccupied you for much of the year. There were probably setbacks and problems to troubleshoot, but those issues look like they’ll be resolved by the end of the month, and you will finally get to move on to the work you’re most excited about doing. Spoiler: the problem was likely not what you suspected. The results of the audit or root cause assessment may surprise you.

With that busier season of your life concluding (for now), you will probably have a chance to catch your breath at the end of the month. After the Sun enters Sagittarius on November 22, you enter your annual month of solitude and downtime, which typically makes you more inclined to turn down social invitations as the rest of the world is also preparing to hibernate for the holidays. Mars enters Virgo on November 25, though, which energizes your capacity to go places and take on the world. Maybe this year’s rest season calls for a more active style of decompression, preferably not at home in your sweatpants? Mars won’t guarantee you a smooth journey (in fact, it may problematize it, or make you prone to encountering more people with a bad attitude abroad), but it might give you the energy to tackle an itinerary you didn’t have the bandwidth to handle earlier in the year.

Aquarius Rising

Not that you really doubted or underestimated yourself before, but you’re coming out of this month feeling clearer than ever on who you are and what you stand for. All of the projections in the world couldn’t derail you from your mission, and even this most recent trial will ultimately serve as fertile compost for the next major chapter of your career or personal becoming. With Venus and Mercury both stationing direct on November 13, you will feel ready by mid-month to go live with your redesigned website, so to speak. Venus has taken you on a bit of an underworld journey since early October to get in touch with where your purpose is leading you next in life, and Mercury’s shorter retrograde since late October has involved some more technical or logistical revisions to your public-facing materials. It’s not just about the “what” of what you’re doing, but also the “why.”

Don’t assume that this is strictly limited to your professional endeavors, either. Venus’ retrograde journey may have very well brought you face-to-face with matters concerning your family of origin or nationality. You might be entering a new chapter where your relationship to your parents is concerned, and perhaps renewing your ties to your heritage in some way. With Venus stationing direct in your 9th house all month, a long journey to reunite you with loved ones (or with something more intangible) is very probable, and you will probably enjoy connecting with others one-on-one wherever you go. This is probably one of your best moments in 2026 to travel in general, and to take pleasure in your learning pursuits. Make sure to leave time for all the museums, live music, and ambiance-forward restaurants your heart craves. The vibes will be immaculate.

Aside from all of that, there does seem to be a relationship story happening for you this month, and perhaps it’s the kind you’ll welcome. The full moon in Gemini on November 24 could show up for you as a peak romantic experience of some kind, and Venus’ direct station could pave the way for some sort of travel affair, or a relationship with someone from a different culture. However, there’s also a triple conjunction of Mars, Jupiter, and the South Node in your 7th house of others happening all through November, which suggests you’ll need to let go of a need for certainty or a desire to “conquer” or win anyone over prematurely. If you’re coupled, perhaps you and your partner will need to work through some issues and let go of a need to be right or to “win” the argument? Love should be a team effort, not a competition that produces winners and losers. Sacrifice this tendency, and you’ll open yourself up to much more love and satisfaction.

Pisces Rising

As much as you wish you could focus on more exciting things, you can’t put off dealing with your health concerns any longer. Assuming there are any illnesses and injuries vying for your attention, you will probably be focused on healing and getting to the root of these issues in November. Your ruling planet, Jupiter, conjoins the South Node in your 6th house on November 12, and Mars will join the pile on the 15th and 16th. This is certainly a recipe for overdoing it at the gym, so don’t push yourself too hard if you’ve got the extra fuel to burn. Other than that, what does the doctor say? Does it make sense to get a second opinion? Do you need to make a lifestyle adjustment? This is not the sexy horoscope you were hoping for, but it’s quite possibly the one you need right now.

Fortunately, with Venus stationing direct in Libra all month and forming a sextile to Jupiter, you will probably find ways to access the resources you need to make a proper recovery. Be it money, insurance payouts, or any other kind of help from friends and family you might need while you’re on bedrest or whatever else, there is something beautiful happening with this embrace of interdependency in your life. Maybe you started this Venus Retrograde in October feeling cynical that people would really be there for you, or that a safety net would appear when you needed it. The most important shifts currently happening in your life are the ones that correct the balance of reciprocity and make you feel supported.

And if your health is fine? More than likely, it’s your job that isn’t. Budget cuts, layoffs, and bureaucratic red tape could all conspire to make your life more difficult. However, it still seems as though a solution is coming down the pipeline. Whether you remain employed or not, Venus will likely find ways to keep you afloat, whether through unemployment benefits, a benefactor, or more resources to help you do your job.

Not to be overlooked is Mercury’s direct station in your 9th house of travel and learning on November 13. If you’re in school, you could get an answer about a student loan application that will possibly determine what the rest of your educational path looks like. You could also get a green light to take a trip somewhere or study abroad. It’s an interesting and eye-opening time to actually be on the road, but November’s astrology seems to be setting you up for future adventures of various kinds, so pay attention to what’s being determined and decided in these moments.

Enjoyed your November 2026 horoscope? Look back on October to see how things lined up.
